As i said on the other forum,i'd give up my left testy to have this in my collection !
They removed my comment over there >>>> family site & all you know :winkextra:

Don't think there will be any chance of me being able to afford the end price though.

Strange place to sell a very desirable error.
Probably a 4 figure coin at any of the Auction Houses.
Shall watch. (Only)

I'll advise the seller of your offer but I suspect he'd prefer cash to body parts.

ShaneW on CCF seems to think it's worth $10,000.  I bet the seller would be stoked to get that for it :)

Nah, they're yanks, and they all look like Ken and Barbie dolls under their clothes. :angel:

Hmmm... Neal and I were over there the other day, and he never mentioned he had this. Damn.. woulda loved to get up close and personal with it! :)

Wonder what else is lying around?

Saw that beauty just after it was listed. I bid on it  and had the highest bid:yahoo:
For about 5 minutes:(
Getting too rich for my pocket and I'm sure the deep pockets will send it up into the 4 figures.
Any way to work out the mint and/or the year?

between 38 and 52 is all I can tell from those pic's sorry, bloody nice coin :(

Well, I guess we already know who the new owner will be,unless someone else is prepared to pay more of course, i'm thinking not though.

and I say between 38 and 52 because you can just see the back of George VI head and if it was George V you'd see crown and if lizzy you'd see her face so that's how I come to that :)

We can even narrow it down a little; legend has F D tather than FIDEI DEF and F is lined up with a denticle so it from 1938 to 1948 and either a Melbourne or Perth Mint coin; but not Bombay.

Thanks Peter, I'm learning all the time :good:
